Happy Halloween everyone! Exciting news: our artist decisions have finally been made! 🎃👻 We'll start emailing everyone today, but please be patient, as we have over 300 emails to send! 😅 We'll post again once everyone has been contacted, but this may take a week or so. Thanks for your patience!

Apparently we’re still having issues with our emails, now including our *replies* even going to spam. If you send us an email, at any point, and we don’t reply within 2 days, please check your spam folder and/or DM us on social media instead. We’ll *always* reply!

Applications are now closed! Thank you so much everyone! For those that applied, we'll be in contact soon! 💕 #Zines #ArtZine #QueerArtists #LGBTQArt

Just 24 hours left to apply for "We've Always Been Here"!

Happy Indigenous People's Day from your local two-spirit mod (Felix) ❤️💛🤍🖤

Update! We were finally able to contact support and got our account cleared again, and the updated newsletter should be on its way. Please add [email protected] to your contacts to help our deliverability in the future 💕 For those that signed up during the artist application,

Regarding the last image, it turns out our email program has labeled us as spam, despite having zero reports filed and following absolutely every guideline we're supposed to. This is probably queer censorship. This happened with our first email too and we were assured it wouldn't happen again. 🧵⬇️

We're tired of LGBTQ+ content being censored. Tired of people pretending that being queer or trans is a new "fad", and not something that’s existed, perfectly naturally, for as long as people have been around. Check out our mission, and join us in fighting censorship. 🏳️‍🌈 ⬇️

An email was supposed to be sent out today to go along with this post, also containing a few more updates about our process so far, but it looks like the program we use to send our email is having issues, and their support team is on vacation 🤦 ⬇️

Only one week left! We've already received a lot of wonderful applications, but we're still eager to see what else you all have to show us! We've Always Been Here is a queer historical zine, aiming to show that LGBTQ+ people have always existed, and always will. Apply: forms.gle/MssWPMukkE39...
